Default What is this over flow for? Urgent please help

As the title says guys I'm wondering what this over flow is for on my 2012 EC250 ? I have some oil coming out every couple of seconds. Should I be worried about this? Racing tomorrow.



Many thanks

No idea mate. What oil would it be? Transmission oil? Surely can't be engine oil being a 2 stroke?

Mine is pinched off with a zip tie from the factory.

It should be the exhaust valve chamber drain/vent. Follow it back up and that's where it should go. A little seepage in normal.

Thanks I'm just reading up on that now. What oil is it? And what's the point of the breather guys?

It's just the pipe spooge. Do you have lots out the silencer?

Yeah I do actually but it's runing 50:1 as the dealer suggested. It's always been running great.

You might see more of it depending on the flash point of your oil and doing slow technical riding where the exhaust doesn't get very hot.
